Actual asexuality is extremely rare, but most people who identify as (and it is an identity for them) asexual are likely one of the following:

Inexperienced teens and young adults who haven't had a sexual relationship, or aren't as hypersexual as they think everyone else is (which most people aren't)
People who have experienced sexual trauma or sexual abuse, or have had poor experiences in sexual situations and therefore do not want to experience it again
Gay men and lesbians who aren't interested in the opposite sex but don't understand that they are actually sexually attracted to the same sex
People who want to continue having sex but need to spice up their identity without having to change a thing about themselves and their relationship, so they say they're asexuals who still have sex (also see: non-binary people who call themselves non-binary women and men)
